1970s Brandpower Baseball Advertising Display w/ Signed Baseballs In Original Cases w / Paul Blair Mark Belanger Bobby Grich Jim Palmer Lee Maye Brooks Robinson MEARS LOA

Brandpower Inc. may have been the first to offer authentic signed baseballs as part of a promotion. Maybe this is where "certified" autographs generated from.

Offered is an original display for "All Star Personally Autographed Baseball" Display (35" x 27") featuring the likes of Paul Blair, Mark Belanger, Bobby Grich, Jim Palmer Lee May and Brooks Robinson. The display has a slight tear on the lower middle, where it was folded.

Included in this are five of the baseball with the original stands, two have the original box. They included: Blair (ball toned), Robinson (lighter penning), Belanger, Maye and Palmer. Each ball has a sweet spot signature. The sixth is of Bobby Grich, who signed an OAL (Brown) ball later on. A UDA hologram is stickered on. Also included are 11 Brandpower fliers from this promotion.

Consigned by MEARS employee.
